DR PERELMAN’S GUIDE TO A TOP SCORING NAPLAN ESSAY
1.
Memorise the list of Difficult and Challenging Spelling Words and sprinkle them throughout
the paper. Feel free to repeat them, and do not worry very much about the meaning.
2. If you are not sure how to spell a word, do not use it.
3. Repeat the language and ideas in the Writing Task throughout the paper.
4. Begin at least one sentence with the structure, “Although x (sentence), y (sentence).” For
example: “Although these instructions are stupid, they will produce a high mark on the
NAPLAN essay.”
5. Master the five-paragraph form.
a) Have a minimum of four paragraphs, preferably five.
b) Each paragraph, except the last one, should have a minimum of four sentences. Do
not worry about repeating ideas.
c) The first paragraph should end with your thesis sentence.
d) The next-to-last paragraph should modify your thesis sentence by taking the other
side of the issue in special cases.
e) The last paragraph should begin with “In conclusion” and then repeat the thesis
sentence from the first paragraph. Then just repeat two or three ideas from the other
paragraphs.
6. Increase your score on the “Audience” and “Persuasive Devices” categories by addressing
the reader using “you” and ask questions. For example: “So you think you wouldn’t mind
writing a stupid essay?”
7. Use connective (Velcro) words such as “Moreover,” “However,” “In addition”, “On the other
hand” at the beginning of sentences.
8. Begin sentences with phrases such as “In my opinion”, “I believe that”, “I think that” etc.
9. Repeat words and phrases throughout your paper.
10. Employ the passive voice frequently throughout your paper.
11. Use referential pronouns, such as “this”, without a reference noun following it. For
example, “This will make the marker think you are a coherent writer”.
12. Make arguments using forms such as “We all believe that we should do X” or “We all know
that Y is harmful”.
13. Always have at least one, preferably two adjectives next to nouns. Thus, not “the dog” but
the “frisky and playful dog”.
14. If you are writing a narrative essay, think quickly if there is a television program, movie, or
story that you know that fits the requirements of the narrative writing task. If there is one
use it as your narrative, embellishing it or changing it as much as you want. Markers are
explicitly instructed to ignore if they recognise any stories or plots and mark the script on
its own merits as if it was original.
15. Never write like this except for essay tests like the NAPLAN.
